The galaxy's worst bounty hunter just might be its most relentless hero.

Esper may dress the part. She has her own ship. She even carries a blaster--not that she ever uses it.

But she violates the cardinal rule of the galaxy's most cold-blooded profession: get paid.

At least she's not alone. Her partner Kubu is an alien who gets mistaken for a dog.

One is a wizard on the run from her past. The other is a lovable eating machine. Between them, they haven't got a ruthless bone in their bodies.

But when a client hires them, they'll do whatever it takes to bring a target home safely.

This time, it's a teenage kidnapping victim, and Esper and Kubu will crisscross the galaxy to track her down and make sure she's safe.

Wayward Saint is the first mission of Black Ocean: Mercy for Hire. It follows the exploits of a pair of do-gooder bounty hunters who care more about saving the day than getting a payday. Mercy for Hire builds on the rich Black Ocean universe and introduces a colorful cast for new and returning readers alike.
